You can't get Baahubali on Torrents?!




Director Rajamouli is known for his straight attack on NRI audiences and those who downloaded pirated movies from 'torrent' websites. During the release of 'Eega', he has come down heavily on piracy issue and now his team is getting ready to crack the whip yet again. This time they want to cut the roots rather blasting fruit pickers. Obviously for a movie that involved 100 crores into production, piracy shouldn't play the spoil sport. Even if the film is a blockbuster hit on day one, it takes nearly 4-5 weeks to recover 50% of the investment from Part I and then they have to bank on Part II for remaining share's recovery. In this process, those people who failed to get tickets in initial weeks may resort to watching it on a piracy print as they will be unable to control excitement. Guessing this, producer Shobu Yarlagadda has now decided to crack torrent websites. "We are in the process of getting a Court Order to make websites issuing torrents liable for piracy", said Baahubali producer. "We have on online piracy-control team in place. That will look into any piracy issues and report to authorities immediately. No question of a piracy version coming up", he adds, indicating how seriously they are focusing on piracy. Of course, rather pressing authorities for a strict vigil, sometimes it is better to take piracy issue into hands because it's our money that is at stake. Well done producer!!
